FELABRATION 3.0 with RICH MEDINA (10.12.12)

FELABRATION returns to The Shrine for the third year to celebrate the life and music of Afrobeat creator Fela Anikulapo Kuti. Once again, Rich Medina (Jump n' Funk) blesses the ones and twos! We are huge fans of Rich and are thrilled to have him back once again. His set will be accompanied by the visuals of The Marksmen. Peoples DJ Collective/Sonic Diaspora DJs Itch 13 and Afroqbano open up the festivities. We will also have a 'world market', with artists and artisans selling all sorts of wares. Discounted pre-tickets are on sale now! BUY
